New TAAProject Website

The new Autism Acceptance Project website is now up: www.taaproject.com. . The gallery will be expanded for more art exhibitions that are curated by myself and other guest curators. There is also a new discussion forum there where we can discuss latest news and events. The Autism Acceptance Project is starting is support group soon in Toronto, lead by autistic adults for parents to ask all of their important questions and discuss their fears. Our autistic leaders are there to reveal a little more about what its like to be autistic and growing up with autism so that parents can get an idea of what it will be like for their children and family.

There will be more. Please re-check The Autism Acceptance Project website for updates on upcoming programs and events.

Many thanks to Kevin Leitch of Autism Hub for helping to reconfigure our website and for the TAAProject advisory who made comments on the site before we went live. Kev has done a great deal in keeping our community together online.
